Set
in 1890, the true story of Frank T. Hopkins unfolds as he is challenged
to take part in a race across the ocean in Saudia Arabia to keep the
name of the greatest long distance racer of all time. So now he must
prove himself to the other half of the world by risking his life and
the life of his horse to save something so precious to his indian
brothers and sisters.
This was a really good movie and I was totally enthralled by the
amazingness of the horses. Truly brilliant life that Frank T. Hopkins
lived as said at the end of the film it was estimated he has won more
than 400 long distance races.
Rating: 4 of 5 stars
